NAUGATUCK NUGGETS.

The Electric Light Company are wiring the Congregational chapel for the incan- descant lights, of which about 100 will be used. This will be one of the finest build ings of the kind in the state when con- pleted.
 Dr Gerrish and Charles Gray with their wives, have gone to Westerley, R. l., to spend Christmas.
 George Kennedy, who is attending school at Suspension Bridge, N. Y., is at home spending the holidays
 All the shops in the town will shut down tonight. They will resume work Tuesday morning. Willie. son of Thomas Mayer, while riding on sleigh this morning, was thrown against the bridge and severley hurt. No bones were broken. Naugatuck people need not go away from home to buy their Christmas dinner, for the merchants of this town have a very large stock of choice goods to select from, which they are selling at hard pan prices. Turkeys are being sold at 15 cents a pound, and nice Malaga grapes, pounds for % cents. The entertainment given by Prof Lath- am at the Opera House last night is very highly spoken of, and was deserving of a larger house.

ENTERTAINMENTS.
OPERA HOUSE.

ofAS~OtHo AAOS''AA'
 As was promised, the presentation last night at the Opera House of "The Marble Heart" by the Atkinson & Cook Stock Company was the best performance of the week. Sudh people as Messrs Sullivan, Shea and Dennison possess too much ability to be throwing away their time in such pieces as 'The Lancashire Lass" and "Queen's Evidence" Last evening the best talent in the company made itself con- spicuous and received the enthusiastic ap- plause which it merited. Of the ladies of the company Miss Ames proved herself worthy of characters demanding more pains taking, study and art than do Ruth Kirby, Kathleen Kavanaugh and Kate Medland. The company will close its en- gagement this evening with the presenta- ton of the ''Danites."
 James H. Wallick's Company in "The Cattle King" in the afternoon and "The Bandit King" in the evening is the at traction. Manager Jacques offers for Christ mas. These pieces are filled swith melo- dramatic situations, and MT Wallicks splendidly trained horses add greatly to the realistic effects.

sions. Communications from Mr.. Abbott,

NEW YORK, March ia gentleman
known to be in the confidence OF Alfred
Sully authorized to night the following.
The Baltimore and Ohio deal is in abey-
ance. There are really no new develop
ments and probably will not be for some
time. Such transactions as are gwen so
much publicity cannot be carried through
in day or week, and if suddenly con-
summated would perhaps have a bad
effect upon securities generally. Large
properties cannot be acquired without in,
yestigatiou into their condition and all
surrounding circumstances, and it is not
to be supposed any transaction of this
nature could di1 from the natural laws
Of business. If anything is done
it will take time to carry it out and there
cannot be any result reached for the pres
ent. The Baltimore and OHIO property,
by reason Of its geographical position and
its connections, is valuable and there is
no doubt many would be glad to control
it, but Mr.. Brice has already stated il is
not likely Mr.. Garrett would make any
arrangement with any parties looking TO
sale OF the Baltimore snd Ohio, unless
1t meant combination or close alliance
with the Terminal Compsny's system Of
southern roads. Mr.. Garrett is q large
real estate owner in Baltimore; be is
interested in building no Baltimore, and
whatever he will do will be in the interest
OF Baltimore Bs well as the Baltimore and
